“…In recent years, the term silent thyroiditis has also been frequently used [1]. This disorder has been described by various names, such as thyrotoxicosis with painless thyroiditis [2], occult subacute thyroiditis [3], hyperthyroiditis [4], lymphocytic thyroiditis with spontaneously resolving hyperthyroidism [5] and transient hyperthyroidism with lymphocytic thyroiditis [6].…”

“…Patients with silent thyroiditis do not have pain or tenderness of the thyroid gland, so the term "painless thyroiditis" is sometimes used instead of silent thyroiditis [3]. Postpartum transient thyrotoxicosis has often been regarded as one of the phenotypes of this clinical entity [4,5].…”

Circulating Activated T Lymphocyte Subsets in Patients with Silent Thyroiditis.

Abstract.In order to investigate the immunological aspects of silent thyroiditis, T lymphocyte subsets were analyzed by two-color flow cytometry in 10 patients with silent thyroiditis in the thyrotoxic phase, 12 patients with silent thyroiditis in the recovery phase, and 11 healthy volunteers as a control. The percentages of CD3+ CD4+, and CDS+ cells were similar in all three groups. In contrast, activated matured T (HLA-DR+CD3+), activated helper/inducer T (HLA-DR+CD4+) and activated suppressor/ cytotoxic T (HLA-DR+CD8+) cells were more numerous in both the thyrotoxic and the recovery phases of patients with silent thyroiditis when compared with healthy controls. In a serial study of 6 patients with silent thyroiditis, the percentage of activated helper/inducer T (HLA-DR+CD4+) cells was higher in the thyrotoxic phase than in the recovery phase. These data indicate that the activation of T cells, especially of helper/inducer T cells, might be important for the induction of silent thyroiditis.
